A woman identified as Mrs Chika Charles has
been sentenced to 90 years in prison by a
federal high court in Enugu for defrauding
students seeking admission into Enugu State
University of science and technology (ESUT) to
the tune of 5.6 million Naira.
According to a statement released by the
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission
(EFCC). The convict obtained the money from her victims under the pretense of
helping them gain admission into the university through her unregistered non-
governmental organisation (NGO) known as Bold and Dynamic Gender Initiative.
It was learnt that she was arrested in 2007 after one of her victims sent a petition
to EFCC concerning her fraudulent activities.
The jail term comprises three years on each of the 30-count charge and will run
concurrently from the date of her conviction.
